What’s in it
AI summary Iowa will provide $5 million to the Department of Human Services to buy one million meals for nonprofit food banks. These meals will be given to food banks based on how many people live in the areas they serve. Additionally, nonprofit food banks will not have to pay sales or use tax on items or services they buy for charitable work.1
Read the official explanation
This bill relates to nonprofit food banks, and makes an appropriation. The bill appropriates $5 million from the general fund of the state to the department of human services for fiscal year 2021-2022 that shall be used to purchase million meals to be distributed among the nonprofit food banks based upon the percentage of the state population of the service area of the specific food bank. The bill exempts from the sales tax the purchase price from the sale or rental of tangible personal property or specified digital products, or services furnished, to a nonprofit food bank if the property or services are to be used by the nonprofit food bank for a charitable purpose. “Nonprofit food bank” is defined in the bill.5.
